[QUOTE="rmwebs, post: 359360, member: 29192"] Hi all, I've recently turned 18 and have decided to get myself an iMac. Currently I'm at college and qualify for a student discount which is great. However I do have a few questions that I would like to ask. 1) If I purchase a mac now, and leopard is released in a few weeks time, will I have to pay if I want to upgrade to it? If I do have to pay, how much would it cost? 2) I've been looking at the iMac base model (the 1.83Ghz model. If i was to go for that one, I would purchase a memory upgrade to 1GB. Would this be suitable for Web Design, internet surfing, voice chat and the occasional game? 3) I'll be going to my local Apple shop later today or tomorrow (Brent Cross, London). Is there anything I should specifically ask about? 4) Is it worth getting a subscription to .mac? I've looked around for the answers to these questions but seem to have drawn little information, I would be very grateful if someone could help me out here :) Thanks for you're time, Rick [/QUOTE]
